dusty shoes

hi everyone I know it's been a while just been hanging out in Dubai partying and spending time with friends not too much excitement well ok maybe a little. Sven and his flatmate who are both helicopter engineers for the Dubai airwing arranged a helicopter ride for us a couple weeks ago and it was unbelievable, the pictures are a little hazy which gives you some sort of an idea what it's like here sand, sand and more sand. First time for me in a helicopter and was a little apprehensive after last summer's 4 seater plane ride Ok helicopters feel completley different so much more fun and not nearly as scared on this than that little plane. We flew above Dubai checked out all the famous landmarks was pretty amazing. Saw where they are constructing the Palm a huge housing complex built on water and in the shape of a plam tree and next to it the World which is no where to being finished but still a wonder to see. Dubai is one big sandpit construction is unbelievable here and they just keep builing ridiculous massive complexes, the land of excess walk into any mall or hotel and you get the idea.
